The Work of New World Performance Laboratory A Search for Authentic Space
Principles of Creation in NWPL • The Actor is Architect of his/her own time/space, i.e. action • A theatre of research which operates in the craft tradition, where art is not separated from daily life. • An ecological theatre whose purpose is not to demonstrate one’s virtuosity or identity, but to penetrate one’s own humanity—to enter authentic space where “meeting” can occur.
